This is the first clip I've been able to throw together in a while, as my PC has been seriously F'ed. Anyway, it's a quick clip with the new Jimmie Vaughan Strat and a Vox ToneLab Standard. I made this to show that you can get good distorted sounds out of this box - I feel it's been getting a bad rap. It really excels at classic-rock-amounts-of-gain.

Like lots of people have said, it lacks a bit in the super-heavy metal chunk, but then again: I haven't come across other modeler that doesnt, to my ears.

I'm using a treble booster emulation running into a dimed Marshall Bluesbreaker (JTM45) on the TL. It's one of my favourite models on the TL, aside from the Soldano and Vox AC30TB models.

ps... sorry about the hum...the SCs don't really like the lights in the room I recorded in. It's a short clip, but there are more to come - as well as clips of my new Carvin Bel Air.

Thanks, GT. Having the tone control wired to the bridge pickup is a great mod already built into it.

I'm looking into a Shure SM57 so I can record some good clips of my Bel Air. I'm sold on Carvin, I think. Great clean channel. The dirty channel could use some modding, but I knew that buying it. Either way, I love the clean tones the EL84s give this amp. Sounds like a mix of Vox and Fender to me. And it takes pedals very well. Some really cool lead sound clips of the TL through an amp soon!

Two more short clips:

This one's a bit of Robben Ford at about 8 in the morning... a few muckups but I kept it because I liked the tone a lot at points here...almost saxlike at around 0:40. All one setting on the TL, clean bits at beginning done by rolling off volume. The TL responds very well.

Again, I really liked the tone on this little snippet. I'm re-learning this song and I'm really re-discovering these great JB licks... anyways, I thought this was worth keeping from last night - the 'saxlike' tone is there again.
